Cryptic tweets

Post by Vandy79 »

Vanderbilt Recruiting on Twitter reporting cryptic tweets of staff changes upcoming that are “hurtful”. Some speculation that it might be Barton Simmons.

Just to clarify, for anyone who is not familiar, this is an unofficial Vanderbilt recruiting Twitter account.

Yes. Thanks Auric. Meant to add that. I was just curious with the wealth of Vandy knowledge here if there were any other info.

I hate social media sometimes. Was better to just be blissfully ignorant of these type things “back in my day”

No way Barton leaves CCL. They are brothers.

I have to say though, the lifestyle of working in college football is grueling. When you're in it you basically don't see your family from early August until Christmas. Some families are built for that and can withstand it, and some can't. That being said, I could see someone being in this for a couple of years and realizing that its not something they want for their family. Complete reckless speculation by me though.

Lea most definitely needs some assistant changes....especially DB coach & D-coordinator. Maybe a receivers coach too!

RB coach, VU alum left. I'd rather have Barton so that's good news to me.

I would agree. Norval is a good guy, but I’m convinced that our OL is the real MVP and keeping Coach Blazek is much more important.

Agreed, it's unfortunate but losing Barton would have been a foundation shaking loss.

Since the "cryptic tweet" was from an unofficial "recruiting" site, don't you think the author was talking about the individual who left for Colorado?
